Lease End Options
Preparing for Lease-End
Our Ford experts will break it down for you based on where you are at in your Red Carpet Lease experience. You will have full transparency into what to expect once your lease ends. At lease-end, you have three great options to choose from, and Ford Credit is ready to help make the experience easy and convenient for you.
Option #1: Purchase or Lease A New Ford Vehicle
Please refer to our Buy vs. Lease page to help you decide which option best fits your needs.
Option #2: Purchase Your Leased Vehicle
With the Red Carpet Lease, you have the option to purchase your lease vehicle at lease-end. When you purchase your vehicle you are not responsible for Excess Wear and Use or excess mileage charges. Follow these simple steps to help ensure a smooth and convenient vehicle purchase. See how easy it is to own your Ford and go further.
Talk with your Ford dealer about:
- Your vehicle purchase options
- The final purchase price, including taxes and other charges
- Your appointment to purchase your lease vehicle on or before your scheduled lease-end date
Option #3: Return Your Leased Vehicle
When you return your vehicle to your originating dealer,* remember to bring any repair receipts along with all keys and key fobs. To fulfill your lease obligations, please remember to:
- Satisfy any remaining financial obligations
- Facilitate lease-end requirements including reviewing and signing the Odometer Statement (required by federal law)
- Complete your vehicle return transaction
Please note: Failure to complete lease-end transactions by your lease-end date could result in additional charges as described in your Red Carpet Lease Agreement.
*If you have moved and it is no longer convenient to return to your originating dealer (the dealership which originated your lease), you may return or purchase your lease vehicle through any participating Ford Dealer. Be sure to schedule an appointment in advance.
